A pedagogia libertadora e a práxis educativa freireanas na Educação Profissional e Tecnológica: o caso do Curso Técnico em Vigilância em Saúde Integrado ao Ensino Médio

Abstract

This article brings the experience of Freire's liberating practice in the design of the project for the technical course in Health Surveillance integrated to High School Education at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology from the Northern Minas Gerais, Advanced Campus Janaúba. It aims to report how the pedagogical practice in Paulo Freire is also an educational praxis, since, mediated by history, it seeks the unity between the human being and the world of which he is part. To rescue the idea of Freire's pedagogical practice related to the concept of praxis and, as a result, to Professional Education integrated to High School Education, is imperative, especially in this context, where the denial of the human condition, or humanity, is increasingly evident. The discussion about the concept of praxis was anchored in Marx (2002), Losurdo (2015), Vásquez (2011), Manacorda (1996), Semeraro (2005) and, mainly, in Gramsci (1975) and Freire (1987). In a second moment, it was presented the Freirean Pedagogical Liberating experience in the technical course in Health Surveillance at Institute. Finally, the methodological and organizational principles of the course were discussed, emphasizing its curricular structure based on the Generating Themes methodology.
